Finding Common Ground
A difference of opinion among believers isn't a new issue. Even in the Bible, specifically Acts 15, we see a quarrel between champions of the gospel: Paul and Barnabas. The argument actually resulted in a split-Paul and Barnabas each went his own way. How often do we discount other viewpoints or ideas because they simply don't match up with our own? When it comes to the Christian faith, especially, we can spend an inordinate...

The early believers of Jesus Christ knew that they were not just members of an organization, nor were they just an extension of Old Testament Judaism. They knew that they were followers of the living Lord Jesus Christ. They were members of a thing called the church. Through the centuries, the church has been the most powerful transforming force in history. Yet in America many observe it as anemic and powerless. Author Elmer Towns contends that there...

He offers a vision for the right and...

Está por todas partes... es tan ubicua y extensa, que casi ha llegado a convertirse en parte del mismo aire que respiramos. A algunas personas les entusiasma, otras la odian, y algunas la desdeñan o se comportan como si no existiese. Sin embargo, nos guste o no, ya sea que advirtamos o no su presencia, la cultura pop desempeña un papel extraordinario en nuestras vidas cotidianas, influyendo a menudo en la manera en la que entendemos y observamos...

Tales of demise and decline have come to characterize news on the state of religion and congregations in America. In “The Postindustrial Promise”, author Anthony Healy finds that the changes in religious life and among congregations are being misunderstood. Instead of seeing the changes as the result of the presumed aspects of postmodern life-individualism, the collapse of social groups, and the scrapping of tradition-Healy sees what has occurred...

This last group has been tagged "The Dones", those who still seek to follow Jesus and find real community but have given up hope that the local congregation is still relevant to their journey. What do we make of this phenomenon?...

This essay addresses a formidable subject, rarely treated today. It is a matter of knowing what "experience" of God can reach a human being, whether he or she seeks God without knowing it or naming God, or that he or she affirms, as a Christian believer, God's historical manifestation in Jesus Christ. Once the symbols, the words, the images, the concepts, the rites, are passed, can we join a je ne sais quoi of the reality of God, and how? In a language...
